Evidence mounts. Before Abraham. Before Isaac. Before Jacob. Before Israel existed. There was a Babylonian God named Ia, Ya, Ja, which is an abreviation of the god named Yahve (Yahveh). According to Exodus 6:3 God told Moses that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob only knew him as El-Shaddai (God Almighty). These patriarchs of Israel did not know and did not worship a Babylonian God named Ia, Ya, Ja or Yahve(h). It is this god that Dr. Friedrich Delitzsch informs us is the same as Yah and Jah. This is the god of hallelu-jah. We know this cuts hard across the traditions of men, be they the traditions of the Jews or the traditions of the Gentiles. But the true God is not Jehovah or Yahweh or Jahveh. The name of the true God is Jesus Christ. And I confess right here that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. Will you?
